Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Strong's Greek entry is G2448, which refers to "Ἰούδας" (Ioudas), the Greek form of "Judah." While not a direct equivalent to Juttah, it is related through the tribal association, as Juttah is located in the territory of Judah.

Usage: The term יֻטָּה (Juttah) is used in the context of a geographical location, specifically a city allocated to the Levites within the territory of Judah.

Context: Juttah is mentioned in the Bible as a city in the hill country of Judah. It is noted for being one of the cities given to the Levites, as recorded in the book of Joshua. The city is significant in biblical history due to its association with the Levitical priesthood, which played a central role in the religious life of ancient Israel. The allocation of cities like Juttah to the Levites was part of the broader distribution of land among the tribes of Israel, as described in the Old Testament. Juttah's location in the hill country suggests it was situated in a region characterized by elevated terrain, which was typical of many Levitical cities that were strategically placed throughout the land of Israel.

In the Berean Standard Bible, Juttah is mentioned in Joshua 21:16: "Ain, Juttah, and Beth-shemesh—nine cities from these two tribes, along with their pasturelands."
